Epididymitis- infected bollock

Recommended Posts

I am not referring to the way the Foxes have been playing up until Sevilla. 

I went to hospital last night, and was diagnosed with this- has anyone else had it, and how much time off work did you need? I need to be realistic for my boss.

Had it before myself and I was in agony. Took a couple of days for the antibiotics to start working but after that no problem. Realistically I'd say 3 days. 

Cheers. That's really useful. Hope it is sorted that quick as paracetamol/ibuprofen aren't doing a lot!

Looks like antibiotics and painkillers do the job quite quickly as per most med websites on the topic. Should be fine within a few days to a week, as the doc said.

 

Best of luck with your recovery - must be no fun at all.

Cheers for that. It's a right buggerance living where I do (Weymouth) and not bring able to get out! Although the weather has been crap the last few days anyway!

Thanks for sharing, my world is a better place.

 

May I regale you with my favourite joke?

 

I took a man into A&E last night with swollen testicles.

"How did this start"? asked the Doc

"I was trying to shove them up my arse" the man replied

"Rectum" said the Doc

"Oh no, I haven't, have I"?

You do know it hurts to laugh, don't you?

I was off work for six weeks (total bloody agony). I remained in pain for a few more weeks.I got the infection following the snip, and one bollock was larger than a tennis ball. Stubbed my toe on a table which jolted it, and nearly passed out.

Looks like I'm back to the quack on Fri for a sick note then! Mine's certainly not getting better- but doesn't sound as bad as yours- ouch!

From agony on Sunday to bearable discomfort on Friday.... and 2 weeks off work cos the antibiotics fox you up!

Just in case anyone suffers from this in the future. I should imagine if it's a surgical infection it would be a hell of a lot worse!

Just get a minge installed mate, far fewer problems in the long run.

I keep having reoccurring bouts of this roughly once a year and it's bloody painful to the point that you can't concentrate on anything else! 

Thankfully it is only this and nothing too serious!

Well- I had a slight ache for 2 months before it got bad..... warning sign to go to the quacks!

Exactly the same as how mine start off! A dull ache for a while which gets worse. Google your symptoms and you almost definitely think you have cancer!
